What is the best exercise to help get pain relief from knee arthritis?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 лип 2024
- The best knee arthritis exercise really depends on where you are in your knee osteoarthritis. Treating knee arthritis really is a process and cannot be fixed by one single exercise done repeatedly over time. This is why sometimes an exercise will help for a while and then eventually the pain might return.
People that suffer from knee arthritis often find 1 exercise they like that makes them feel better - like cycling for example. Then they’ll invest in a bike and keep doing that with hopes of making the knee arthritis problem go away. But that’s just not the full picture for treating a knee osteoarthritis problem. Once the knee improves, then it’s important to start to work on exercises that progress you through the next phase.
In this video, Dr. David overviews the different phases of knee arthritis and shows you examples of what exercises you might be doing depending on what phase you’re in for your knee arthritis.

Thank you so much for your channel. I have knee arthritis, my friend Arthur will not leave. I want to do what I can so I do not need to have knee replacement surgery. I have hope I can conquer this and get back to a more normal life.
I ama lot of pain in my knee! I am learning so much in these videos
Seriously you're my mighty knee guru forever and the miracle I was looking for.
I have done everything to work with this arthritis pain. The list is very long... Acupuncture, Qigong, physical therapy. The fact that you are so specific with your physical therapy and so thoughtful is amazing. I am so incredibly grateful to have found you on UA-cam. I like others and considering purchasing the knee arthritis recovery program in the near future. I just found you yesterday and already I could go to the gym and to some of the range of motion exercises you recommend and I'm using my glutes when I walk so I can walk. That's one day I'm really looking forward to what happens after a month or 3 months or a year of following your program. May your life, your family and everyone that surrounds you be blessed!!!
Hey Laura! We're so glad you found us too!! We hope you start to get control over this so that you can have the best knee health as you age. Blessings to you too!! ❤️
Doc you are a real inspiration for all our unfortunate people that are suffering with knee problems. Thanks for all the advice. Following most of them and they helping a lot. Love from South Africa 🤗
I enjoyed this video because I've been debating getting your course. This video gave me a better view of what it would be like. I have severe arthritis and definitely caused a major flare-up over a month ago that I never experienced these past eight years. On Friday, I had gel injections in both knees and will have PRP injections in a month. I also started to wear a brace at that time. I loved it from the get-go, and I really think it helps me. I have been using a cane, which ended up causing my other knee to begin to hurt.
I happened to watch a video where you replied in a comment, linking a site to find a manual PT. I was excited there were two people nearby. I have been hesitant to have physical therapy. I watched a video where you talked about doing what you need to do to help yourself - having an injection, going to physical therapy for example. Saying this did help me move forward with what a doctor I had seen suggested. I have been doing three to five of your exercises overall and a few others here and there for several weeks, and I have been doing better - before I had the injections/wearing the brace. Thank you so much.
After going to several PT places, and a partial replacement, I finally found a good PT place. You are even better than that! It’s unfortunate there are so many mediocre PT out there since it’s so important. I’m so appreciative that you make such good You Tube videos. Thank you
You are an unique fantastic physiotherapist with much passion on ur profession and taking care and doing research for the minute details... Congrats Dr and God bless u... Lots of regards and respect.. From India
Thank you so much Doc. For your Channel, I’m following the exercises you recommended. 😊👌🙏❤️

@@epmanualphysicaltherapy by the way sir can i ask a question why my knee joint keep cracking sound or clicking when i swing it or everytime sit and stand up im 37 and its just start just 1 week ago
Hi thank you so much for this you tube ❤ I would say I have stage three arthritis in right knee. I have had pins and needles in leg and foot some tenderness in right glute is this pinched nerve or syaderca what stretch can I do to fix this
I'm new subcriber from ur channel . God bless u from philippines
Welcome Lourdes!!! 🇵🇭❤️
Thank you. Can you also talk about hamstrings? I followed your gluten activation plus hamstrings and was able to play soccer one day per week without bad knee flare up. You really know your topic very well.
Edit to Glute, not gluten, sorry
I’m 10 months post-op total knee replacement and still having significant ongoing daily pain especially in kneecap area. I had a great surgeon and my X-rays are perfect. After watching your video, I think my issue is muscle imbalance because my quads and hamstrings are very strong and dominant. My question is do I do the glute exercises as you demonstrated or modify in some way?. Judy A.
Hi Am so glad to have found you since yesterday, yes am looking to forever be done with knee arthritis.
Am in phase 1 , swelling and pain. So am doing the tail gate exercise.

I will get the program to get started.
Question, should I i start when am in levels two or should I start the program anyway?

Hello Doctor David thanks for all the great video's what's your thoughts on elliptical trainers
Hey Ron! Using an elliptical will be helpful if you can get your glutes to work during the exercise. If you feel you are using your quads more than your glutes while using the elliptical, then you will likely make your knee problem worse :-(
@@epmanualphysicaltherapy thanks will keep this in mind
I think I’ve been in stage 1 for 18 months! I’m doing the glut exercises daily and things are improving! However, my meniscus tear is still there! Will it ever heal? ❤️

Thanks I feel better doing gluit exercixes. Can we get rid of athritice compleatly?
Hey @Tours-DIY-Reviews-HowToDo, so glad the glute exercises are making you feel better! In most cases you will not get rid of arthritis completely. However, the purpose of what we are doing in these videos is to get rid of muscle imbalances that are causing the knee pain. Once we get rid of these imbalances the joint will be in a good position to allow healing to occur. It is not likely to completely get rid of the arthritis, but it will allow for noticeable improvements.

i never feel anything in the glutes with the clamshell. like zero. like maybe i dont have glutes.
Swimming can be a good choice of exercise if you have arthritis because it: stimulates blood circulation and can reduce muscle stiffness
Not always...swimming can irritate your pain afterwards since you have to move your feet and knee and humidity it's not good too. Always depends on the stage of the knee pain!
I thought the same but to my surprise on vacation swimming caused a lot of night pain.
A couple of weeks ago, I overdid it with pickleball and leg machines at the gym. I was afraid I re tore my meniscus! I have been babying my knee with ice, NSAIDs ever since and doing tailgates, so maybe another week or two of glute work before playing pickle ball again? Would swimming be okay now and stationary bike?
Am I able to build cartilage if bone on bone and zero cartilage?
Hey Howard, it depends is the short answer. We've got a whole playlist of videos talking about knee cartilage health here:
"Knee Cartilage Help"
ua-cam.com/play/PLJVIPiFvv1mbdl1FVQx8BCGdNaOyGo09p.html
Is swimming good for knee osteoarthritis? I am probably in stage three at the moment. Please advise
When I try the clamshells, even though I can feel my glutes working, I feel pain in my knee. It's like there's a tendon, or something, that's wrapped around the inside of my knee that's being pulled. And that hurts.
😅
I can do the baby squats...thank you. My problem is I seem to be always straight legging my left knee when I walk....HELP...how can I walk better? When I walk normally the left knee cracks and it just is so AHHHHH...not pain but just so weird and feels strange.
Do you feel as though your left leg is hanging loose without proper control. Are you afraid to put your left leg first and support yourself. I have these two symptoms and I have arthritis on both knees
@@revathikrishnan5953 No it just is uncomfortable when I walk normally, with the knee bending.
I am bone on bone and am barely able to walk. Shopping cart is my walker. At this point nothing will help me but surgery and I am on an 8 month waiting list. I am in agony
Hey Kim, It breaks our hearts to hear that you are in agony due to bone one-bone arthritis! 🥺 It can be a very painful experience and a lot of people don't understand what it's like to go through unless they are going through it themselves. Please do not give up! It's really important to address the muscle imbalance otherwise after the surgery you may still have problems.

Thats what im doing slow down pick things up
No knee surgery please my mom had it shes 83
You don't say how long you do the clam??
Hi Lydia, Thank you for mentioning this. You want to do it as many times until you tire out the glute muscle but are still able to control the correct form. It would also be great to be able to do it several times a day if you can.
@@epmanualphysicaltherapy Thank you so much! Love your videos and I'm hoping I can get relief on my knee soon. I will follow your instructions!
Hi I might have missed it but how many 10 second times should I do it, thanks
Hey @lorralorra9133 that depends on what you can tolerate without making anything hurt AND still using the glutes WITHOUT using the quads. Some people can do 10 second holds just about 20-30 times per day and others need to be doing 50-100 reps per day. The more you can tolerate the quicker you can gain strength. Just don’t use your quads too much or you’ll make your knee pain worse.
@@epmanualphysicaltherapy Thank you so much. I really appreciate the speedy response, I'm binge watching ur videos, and subscribed today...HAPPY THANKSGIVING
Byckle ok excersize
Yeah i cant bend down
I am a fitness instructor who specializes in PIlates. I think you need to be careful with the advice you are giving. It is important to move everyday. We need to maintain heart health as well. Yes, activating the glutes is very important, but no muscle should be stressed more than other muscles. One should also have strong quads and hamstrings. Surprised you do not mention core. Abs take pressure off the whole body, when properly engaged, Too many doctors advocate for elimination of movement when they should focus on modifying the exercises people enjoy doing.
